Heatwave? Mother Nature mocks Joanne Nova

Australia had its hottest day earlier this year and it also had its hottest summer ever on record. That seems to have peeved Joanne “it’s not warming” Nova so she has a new metric for measuring global warming temperature.

Instead of measuring the whole country, she focuses on just three cities, Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Her recent post claims the record heatwave doesn’t really matter because populated cities didn’t, according to her own set of stats, set new records for the summer months.

Rather than spend hours on why us city folk should care more about the whole country, I think Mother Nature mocked Nova better than anyone.

Just two days after Nova posted her rant, Melbourne, Australia’s 2nd most populous city, commenced its longest heatwave since records began in 1856.

You’re doing good work over there, Nice One – not sure why you are being tolerated: I’ve found most of my posts end up being SNIPped, deleted, or left in moderation limbo.
They *really* don’t like to be confronted with the facts.
